5.00We found the trip amazing. Boat beautifully kept, staff could not do enough for us, food was amazing and plenty of, day activities were fun and interesting and our room was huge. A big shout out for James who took excellent care of us on boat as well as above and beyond care on my birthday, made it so special for me and Jack who looked after us on all excursions keeping us safe and happy. To Chris who ran a great team we loved it and would go back again.

5.00The boat is beautiful, the food was amazing and I just loved how the staff were always there to help with a smile on their faces. Really… they smile a lot! If you are ever on the boat, Chris as a manager, Tom as the manager for f&b, Sunny as our main waiter, Jack as our tour guide, and the rest of the crew (some of them who you don't even see) made this experience unforgettable.
Fantastic Heritage Cruises 3day / 2 night cruise of Lan Ha bay does not disappoint.

5.00My Wife and I had a fantastic 3 day / 2 night cruise with the Heritage Cruise team enjoying all that Lan Ha Bay has to offer. The Staff were fantastic and went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our time both on the boat and during all the other activities. The food was excellent and the accommodation very comfortable. I would recommend the Heritage team to anyone looking for a relaxing break from the hustle and bustle of the mainland.
A Once-in-a-Lifetime Adventure!

5.00Our trip with Heritage cruises was the highlight of our trip. The boat is gorgeous—perfect for those that want to avoid more touristy party boats. Our room was perfect with breathtaking views through huge windows and a private balcony. However, the most unforgettable part of our journey was the crew. Everybody was so kind and welcoming. James and Jack are true stewards for the cruise line. James took care of our every need and answered all of our questions, and Jack was amazing on our tour to Viet Hai Village. If you are considering a one night vs. two night cruise, do the two night! We would’ve felt so sorry to leave the boat after only one night (and all the food we would’ve missed!), and the bike ride to Viet Hai along with swimming on the beach were definitely my favorite activities! Thank you to Chris, James, Jack, and the rest of the amazing crew.
Phenomenal trip!

Ashley our wonderful friend and tour guide who accompany us to the village and meet all the local people it was fun for being with her. She knows well all the history of Vietnam. She takes us to the highest mountain and reach the top as a reward. My husband and I highly recomended “Heretage Cruises” to everyone.

5.00Amazing cruising experience with wonderful staff onboard Heritage Cruises, in particular Jack, Ethan and Zoe for looking after us and helping to make our 30th wedding anniversary simply spectacular. The facilities and food are 10/10. This classic boutique cruise is perfect for those wanting to relax but still enjoy day excursions, kayaking and swimming. To fully enjoy the experience highly recommend 2 nights in ha long bay.
Top cruise

5.00You will find numerous cruise lines in Hanoi. Most of them are fake junkies. Large boats with two small masts with the distinctive junk sails. Or you can see modern ships, very flashy. I chose the ship of heritage cruises because it has a very classic shape. Interior from the roaring twenties, lots of mahogany wood, photos from the time Hanoi was still called Tonkin. The exterior is also classic style. The ship is new with great top facilities. Very luxurious! Delicious food! Great staff! Very friendly and knowledgeable. The cabin was in a word great too. All with balcony. I would also like to mention the transfers. That was also very well arranged. Tribute to heritage cruises. They have understood how to do it!
Incredible and unforgettable experience

5.00Hard to put into words how perfect our experience was. If you are searching among the seemingly endless options for a Ha Long/Lan Ha experience, look no further. This is the one. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with the highest levels of hospitality, care, and courtesy. Coming into the cruise, we were a bit unsure how the food would be (especially coming from Hanoi), but it took just the first meal for us to realize it would be the best food of the entire trip. Every meal was incredible, with live music during dinner time. And the sheer amount of activities packed into the cruise was very impressive, we loved it all. Definitely consider doing 2 or even 3 nights if you can manage, as having the full day to explore Cat Ba and kayak was a highlight of the trip. A VERY special thanks to Ashley who took great care of us throughout our stay, and led us throughout our activities. She was so helpful and really made us comfortable from the get go. Also a huge thank you to both Jay and Chris who were wonderfully attentive and courteous during our stay.
Best of both worlds!

5.00Honestly can’t say enough about this cruise. We were very impressed with the cleanliness, food, and friendly staff. Kayaking twice, swimming at a beautiful beach in the middle of the limestone karsts. Ashley couldn’t have been better as a tour guide in the village on Cat Ba. Professional, personable, and knowledgeable, she definitely made the full day more enjoyable. I encourage you to participate in everything, and wear the robes they provide for dinner. It was the perfect mix of fun on the ship, adventure, and culture. Great live instrumentals during dinner as well. Not a total party boat but still providing plenty of opportunity for that kind of thing.
